Tomb of Horrors (4e) - Group 2, Part 2

Game Master Rev Rosey

I just saw this message on Rev's blog

"Any players in any of my games checking in here - I am not abandoning you, I just can't get into the site."

so you all know whats up.

Yeah. I ended up being locked out yesterday too. Must be site maintenance?

Back.

Updates follow shortly.

Anri - pm follows shortly.

Sorry, everyone, for not being around for the last few days. We've had a theft, locally, of 900m of valuable copper wire. Specifically, from the local telephone connections. I've had no telephone access at home for the past couple of days, except in intermittent patches. This has had some slight effect on my ability to access the internet.

It would do. Welcome back.

My availability will be patchy the next few days. I'll be busy eloping.

Hooray!

wait...eloping, that's where you perma-mark someone right?

Just wanted to advertise something here real fast.

If you have any interest in chaotic fiction, horror, or the Slender Man, I'm part of a network that writes stories about such things.

My works are as follows if you want to give a looksee.

A hint of serendipity
A man by my own moniker looks for destiny as others are consumed by evil

The Last Refuge of a Dangerous Man
The continuation of said story.

Adrift
A teenager finds himself committing a horrid act, and tries to understand the repercussions of it.

A Spot of Luck
A reimagining of my first blog, done in an alternative universe.

Thanks for the links - taking a look.

So how do you guys change the text color to blue on the boards?

Those are the done with the ooc tags. [ ooc ] blue text [ / ooc ], without all the spacing.

Aha! Thanks. :D

Guess we still need to wait until Flickr chooses to be sane, sadly. :(

Functionality restored.

it's worth a shot at least, Barel. With your extra reach and having it marked, it either suffers penalties to hit me, and provokes from you, or will get edged into the corner if it keeps moving away. Sort of like an archer paladin concept. Mark, keep distance, but keep the threat, therefore it suffers the penalty. Unless this thing has a close attack or reach I don't know about, it might be a good tactic...And we all know Rev doesn't ignore marks. >.>

Man. I'm not seeing any updated posts since the other day. Everybody still around?

I'm still here, heh. Its just that Akemi is a quiet character.

me too, daughter in and out of the hospital the last couple of days, much better now though

Lisbarr has been laying bathroom tiles :)

Sorry to hear about your daughter, detritus, but very glad to know she's on the mend. How incredibly distressing for you.

I'm traveling to South America this week. I should have access most of the time, but Sunday and Wednesday are the travel days, so it will be spotty at least then. Please NPC as necessary, here and in Lost City!

Good thing Raya's such a good sport. >.>

Raya doesn't seem that particularly athletic to Arishat.

I don't know. I can see Raya being a noble, Chariots of Fire type 400m runner who won't compromise.

On that basis, Arishat would probably be competing in the javelin. As long as she could hit a few judges, she'd be happy.

And this, boys and girls, is why they have heavy netting set up around all the field events.

The solution is to run over and hit them with the javelin without throwing it.

guess that means Barel does the kegger toss.

Come on, if there's an athlete in the party...

Never underestimate the little guy.

It occurs to Arishat that mentioning some of the things that she, Lanthair, and Lynore have been doing might not be entirely effective at increasing the regard in which a certain paladin holds us.

She's been pretty good about not being the ole stick in the mud, even being tongue in cheek at times, like when she said 'maybe there's a cat up in a tree I can rescue or something'

Unleashing slaads on a city though, may cross that line.

If it's any consolation, we don't know that was Chloris' intention, and in separate ways we're all doing things to ensure that doesn't happen anyway. Lanthair and Lynore appear to have moral objections, and Arishat has a perfectly legitimate reason too.

oh this is interesting. You guys stole a dangerous box, give it to someone who can do ill with it, and then when the giths, who recognized the danger, arrive to ensure it does no harm, you kill them.

Harsh.

We're awesome like that.

Moral dilemmas are us. I'm fascinated to see how this pans out.

Lanthair isn't really the type to kill things just to get them out of the way. He's really hoping it does not come to that.

Arishat is exactly the sort of person to kill things just to get them out of the way. On the other hand, she's perfectly willing to talk things out of the way too. It's not how the problem is removed that matters to her, it's that it gets out of her way.

She likes to cheat, as well.

Anyone want to play cards?

Edit: I'm just a little puzzled. What's a moral dilemma?

Lynore is the same way.

I didn't know you liked playing cards?

Arishat's strategy is not at all what I was expecting, but I like it...

The Tiefling national sport is screwing each other over.

"That trap you just trod on was a priceless antique!"

"Your priceless antique is now lodged in my foot."

With that boad load of aids, my new spark slippers will remain unpunctured I think.

"Hail of Steel, I choose you!"

thought I had enough for spark slippers, nope.avi 45K for those suckers.

someday....

I hate to do it, but with real life my time is getting shorter and shorter, i do not want to slow you all down more than I have already. I am going to have to pull out of the pbp. I wish you all well and hope it keeps going as long as it has already.

Take care, Lynore. We'll miss having you on our side. I think I can safely say you're welcome back at any opprotunity in your schedule.

:) thanks, it has been alot of fun. This is probably the best campaign series/game i have ever played, due to the DMing

and here I thought it was the Defenders in the group. Heh, yeah Rev's games are always a lot of fun. Any thoughts on what Lynore will do? Maybe hunt the agents of Acererak where we cannot follow?

Lynore joins Chloris as a junior partner in her latest business ventures?

she's paranoid enough, but probably not chatty enough to feign being a soothsayer. Personally, I love the Shadowfell agent hunter idea, since Lynore swore her oath, or at least as much as she deigned to.
